sh_eth: RX checksum offload support

Add support for the RX checksum offload. This is enabled by default and
may be disabled and re-enabled using 'ethtool':

# ethtool -K eth0 rx off
# ethtool -K eth0 rx on

Some Ether MACs provide a simple checksumming scheme which appears to be
completely compatible with CHECKSUM_COMPLETE: sum of all packet data after
the L2 header is appended to packet data; this may be trivially read by
the driver and used to update the skb accordingly. The same checksumming
scheme is implemented in the EtherAVB MACs and now supported by the 'ravb'
driver.

In terms of performance, throughput is close to gigabit line rate with the
RX checksum offload both enabled and disabled.  The 'perf' output, however,
appears to indicate that significantly less time is spent in do_csum() --
this is as expected.

Test results with RX checksum offload enabled:
